  • Chapter One – Beginnings 2ed

This is the Second Edition of the Story, which was first published in part on the Internet on 23 Jun 2011 and completed on 17 Dec 2012.  I have added a section on Special Friends, and also a report of a visit to the Holy Land in 2004. The Story is now  complete. God willing, I hope to capture the full story of my own family.  Please read the Foreword – and Foreword 2 (Update).

I  reviewed the histories of (a) the Chetty Malacca community and (b) the Malayan-Singapore Campaign of World War II, as part of the exercise.  This has led me to publish two editions of The Chetti Melaka Story. I am also working with the Peranakan Indian (Chitty Melaka) Association Singapore to promote the information capture of Chetti Melaka Families in Singapore .

 

Thank you
